Crispy Chicken Thighs with Schmaltzy Vinaigrette
Crispy Chicken Thighs with Schmaltzy Vinaigrette: You’ll get all the deliciousness of a roast chicken in a fraction of the time when you opt for bone-in thighs as opposed to a whole bird. Schmaltz, a Yiddish word for chicken fat, is the base for a bright pan sauce that’s drizzled over the vegetables and crispy chicken thighs. A cast-iron skillet will maintain an even heat so the hot drippings don’t smoke or scorch.
